To my knowledge from what has been reported in the media, Peyton is prepared to negotiate a Very Cap friendly deal. HEAVY in incentives. He is reportedly less concerned about the money than the situation into which he will play.

However accurate the 50 mil number is, it will go quicker than most realize. But that's beside the point. Cap room is cap room. If you don't spend it on one player, you can spend it on another (or multiple). There's no magical amount available at which point a huge contract to one player couldn't have gone elsewhere and is thus irrelevant in terms of team building.
